The Graduation Effect

The phenomenon in which an old piece of media is constantly brought up in defense of a washed up artist, only for that old piece of media to be nothing special. Famous examples include statements such as: "But Kanye made Graduation" or: "But M. Night Shyamalan made The Sixth Sense."
Dude, that album wasn't that great. You're just falling for The Graduation Effect.

Da feeling of "empty letdown after having toiled for nothing" dat you experience as an adult after you'd studied your a** off in grade school about certain strongly-hyped-and-pushed-for-their-supposedly-great-importance subjects (history, science, botany, biology, etc.) other than da "three R's", only to find dat in reality you seldom if ever need any of dat knowledge in your everyday working/home life, and dat others merely stare at you like you're some kinda brainiac nerd when ya mention anything from your vast knowledge of said subjects dat they had long forgotten about or not even bothered to really learn very well themselves in their own school years.
My third-grade teacher always really drove us to learn about da history of San Francisco, yet never once in the ensuing decades have I **ever** hadda use my knowledge of who William Leidesdorff or Amadeo Giannini was --- talk about post-graduation disillusionment!

Honors PE graduate

Alumni of the Honors PE course. After they have completed Honors PE, they are likely to continue their training at gyms such as Planet Fitness. It is their life’s goal to go to gym everyday. If seen by the normal eye they may be described as “odd” or “weird”, but to the eyes of the gods, they have the embodiment of Sisyphus. Some alumni train for different reasons. Some train for inter-galactic olympics, some just for fun, and others to stop catastrophic events

Graduation

In the words of Etta James, At last... we graduate as to celebrate the achievements and the efforts we put in all those years. To celebrate the end of an era means to celebrate a new beginning. A new beginning in the next chapters of our lives that sucked so bad where you are broke most of the time, anxious and borderline depressed, lonely and again broke cus taxes suck real bad.
I graduated with honors.. and in honor of my allowances that I will no longer receive
Congratulations on your graduation! who would've thought that your degree won't be of any use in the society that provides you no opportunities to succeed if you have none!

You graduated? you are officially an unproductive member of society! cheers
